    Starving as you may need a fuel swirl fitted so you can return to that rather than the oe tank that way you return back to the 044....

    I run 2 044's and I return back to my swirl that feed the 044s I've never had starvation with this I did however on oe setup.

          I've a std pump feeding a swirl pot and a 044 feeding the rail and never had any bother with fuel starve since I fitted it all.
          Thanks Mark.

              This is correct , also filter before swirl not after

              Just as it should be . Hows the wiring , voltage drop ? you can use the std pump wiring for a relay with new thicker wires

                I think I'm on to somthing the lift 023 doesn't sound right so I did a test with a pipe in to can and in 1 minite it only put 3.5 litres of fuel which to my calculations it should be 6 litres if I'm right.
                The pump sounds not as smooth as it should there are breaks in the buzz very slight but doesn't sound healthy so as said I've ordered a new pump as port of call the wiring is all Motorsport development ones and voltage is as it should be fingers crossed:😳

                Thanks for all your replys Dave I will do mate thanks

                  Are you running 2 separate looms for the pumps? as our looms wont carry 2 pumps
